What does mobile whitelist mean and what is its use? It is best to give an example.

1. What is the reason why China Mobile launched the whitelist?

In the second half of 2005, in order to suppress freewap, China Mobile sent mobile phone numbers and UA to all non-Monternet WAP websites. But there is a problem. Many well-connected SPs (non-Monternet business) need this mobile phone number and UA, so what should I do? So China Mobile set up a whitelist internally. All servers in the whitelist are treated the same as Montnets. This is where whitelisting comes in.

2. What is the whitelist and what does it do?

The whitelist is a list of servers, that is, all servers in this list are called whitelist servers. His role is to get the same treatment as Montnets business. For example, you can get the user's mobile phone number and UA.

3. What is UA?

UA is the abbreviation of USER_AGENT. It is the mobile phone model used, for example, you can get Nokia N70 and so on.

4. How did you obtain the mobile phone number and UA? Can you compare it with those on the Internet?

Yes, let’s take an example from the Internet:

If a user accesses a page on the Internet, the Internet page can easily obtain the user’s relevant information. For example, if the user uses What operating system, screen size, etc.

Similarly, if a mobile phone user visits a Free wap, the wap's page can also obtain the user's relevant information, but China Mobile has now closed the mobile phone number and UA. As a result, the user cannot obtain the user's most important information.

5. Which companies currently have whitelists?

This is actually very simple. Just go to the WAP sites of these companies and you will know. For example, if we go to wap.qq.com, you can see your mobile phone model clearly on its homepage. Then Tencent can definitely obtain the whitelist.

According to this method, we can obtain whitelists from Tencent, Sina, Kongzhong and Tom. Others like Baidu and Sohu are not in the white list.

6. Can ordinary freewap sites be included in the whitelist?

Very difficult, basically impossible. It is rumored that entering the whitelist now requires the signature of the mobile boss.

7. Do foreign operators also do this?

As far as I know, no foreign operators have done this. This may be related to the monopoly of domestic operators.

8. Does China Unicom have a similar situation?

Because China Unicom has never disclosed the mobile phone number and UA. I don’t know if there is a similar whitelist system.

9. The benefits of entering the whitelist

There are three main points

A. You can get the user’s mobile phone number. This is very important and is the foundation of precise marketing. . For example, if a user visits a travel web page, we can define this user as a travel user. Reverse marketing it.

B. You can get the mobile phone model to make it more convenient for users to use. For example, in mobile games, if the user's mobile phone model is known, the website can easily promote suitable mobile phone models.

C. Mobile executives made it clear at their internal meeting: China Mobile, a whitelisted enterprise, guarantees its access quality.
